If this was an Apple TV app, I think it would be the default mode in my household.

Improves outputs relative to what? Compared to previous contexts of 1M, it improves outputs by allowing them to exist (because previously you couldn't exceed 200K). Compared to contexts of <200K, it degrades outputs rather than improves them, but that's what you'd expect from longer contexts. It's still better than compaction, which was previously the alternative.

I don't think they're claiming "no degradation at scale", are they? They still report a 91.9->78.3 drop. That's just a better drop than everyone else (is the claim).

Those sorts of volume discounts are what you do when you're trying to incentivize more consumption. Anthropic already has more demand then they're logistically able to serve, at the moment (look at their uptime chart, it's barely even 1 9 of reliability). For them, 1 user consuming 5 units of compute is less attractive than 5 users consuming 1 unit.

They would probably implement _diminishing_-value pricing if pure pricing efficiency was their only concern.

Diametrically opposite to tokens beyond 200K being literally free? As in, you only pay for the first 200K tokens and the remaining 800K cost $0.00?

I don't think that's a fair reading of the original post at all, obviously what they meant by "no cost" was "no increase in the cost".

I can see that's what they mean now that I've read the replies, but when I first read that top comment I too parsed it as meaning 201k would cost the same as 999k (which admittedly did seem strange, hence I read the replies to confirm and sure enough that's not actually the case!)

What percentage of the overall code was written primarily by agents?

Amazing-looking UX. My biggest feature suggestion: implement support for SSH jump hosts. I suspect having a single SSH gateway in your homelab that you configure all other hosts with ProxyJump in .ssh/config is a super-common setup amongst your target audience.

Why would a knife be a problem in a checked bag, even if it hadn't been sealed in the original package?

I've asked TSA people similar questions when they checked my bag. He said that the item was blocking view of what was underneath it.

I'd guess it's not the packaging, but a big piece of steel blocking the xray view.

The x-ray machine aren't 360?

If 360, I wonder does the operator perhaps not trust it?

CT baggage inspection is (fairly) new and only used in some places like carry-on screening. This was probably a behind-the-scenes belt x-ray planar image where the giant chunk of metal blocked everything underneath, so they kicked the bag out for a quick look somewhere along the line.

It’s not too unsurprising to see bags routinely get re-xrayed in the belt system when they come off of flights back stage.

probably different fidelity of scanner, I'd guess. This was in 2018-2019

Yes, Discord will obviously never lose its network effect edge and get supplanted. That's simply what always happens with network effects.

Now excuse me while I go post to my Facebook about my new MSN Messenger and ICQ addresses.

Honest question, when was the last time you caught it trying to use a command that was going to "nuke your system"?

“Nuke” is maybe too strong of a word, but it has not been uncommon for me to see it trying to install specific versions of languages on my machine, or services I intentionally don’t have configured, or sometimes trying to force npm when I’m using bun, etc.

Maybe once a month
